Höre, Tochter, sieh und neige deine Ohren; vergiß deines Volkes und Vaterhauses,
Y deseará el rey tu hermosura: E inclínate a él, porque él es tu Señor.
El rey deseará tu hermosura; él es tu señor, inclínate ante él.
Le roi porte ses désirs sur ta beauté; Puisqu'il est ton seigneur, rends-lui tes hommages.
E il Re porrà amore alla tua bellezza; Adoralo adunque, perciocchè egli è il tuo Signore.
Então o rei se afeiçoará da tua formosura, pois ele é teu Senhor; adora-o.
王就羨慕你的美貌; 因為他是你的主,你當向他下拜。
